Mountain View at Desert Willow Golf Resort

We only had time fir 9 holes, but wished to play more, the course was in great shape.

Not excited to be paired up in a cart as a single during the COVID outbreak in San Bernardino County.

The wife and I played here for the second time, love this course. After their overseeing And reopening we were allowed to drive on the course which is a big help to keep up a good pace. This course is beautiful as are the views. Everything about this course is first class especially the fact that there aren’t any houses. We ended up just the two of us for at least half our round, no time for that story. The one weird thing about this course is at some point during our round we start driving through a parking lot and by a number of condo then back to the course, what ever. The staff is first class, great practice facility.

Rode the Purple tees (6507/71.2/128) in 4H, 15M as part of the GK Plays. Thanks to John for setting this up and for Desert Willow for having us out. Very well organized. Overcast, muggy and calm in the low 100's. Played with Daniel, Keith and Kevin, fun group. We all played better on the front and kinda wilted on the back.

Bermuda tees were level, lush and reasonably well maintained for divots.

Bermuda fairways are lush and firm, good to play out of.

Bermuda rough was nice. Semi lush, mowed low and not overly penal.

Sand traps were decently maintained for COVID with good quality sand.

Bermuda greens were okay for late summer. Medium speed, firm with almost no ball marks. Some bare spots around the edges.

Excellent customer service on every visit here, especially Cody, an Assistant pro. Nice GPS on the upgraded carts that have ports for electronics. With COVID-19, no on course services, but plenty of ice/water stations on the course. Nice all grass driving range with a good chipping area & practice green. Fun course, recommended.

Both Firecliff and Mountain View are exceptional municipal courses. Likely the best you’ll ever play. Conditions are phenomenal year round, even during the “dog days” of summer. A must play in the valley.

Wow, spectacular course. The condition was amazing and the staff was friendly. I will go back.

Rode the Purple tees (6507/71.2/128) in slightly less than 3H as a single twilight. Sunny, breezy and around 112.

Bermuda tees were level, lush and reasonably well maintained for divots.

Bermuda fairways are lush and firm, good to play out of.

Bermuda rough was nice. Lush, mowed low and not overly penal.

Sand traps were well maintained with good quality sand.

Bermuda greens were good for middle of the summer. Medium speed, firm and held irons with minor run out.

Excellent customer service on every visit here. Nice GPS on the upgraded carts that have ports for electronics. No on course services, but plenty of ice/water stations on the course. Nice all grass driving range with a good chipping area & practice green. Conditions were pretty good considering the heat, definitely better than Firecliff today. Fun course, recommended.

This was a beautiful and challenging course. Staff was professional and the staff was following and really impressed us on their Covid-19 preparedness. The fairways were in great shape. Some of the greens were rough but I’m not complaining I highly recommend playing Desert Willow.

I’ve been spoiled by relatives belonging to La Quinta. Mountain course, Dunes course, but mostly the private Citrus course. A member recommended Desert Willow. Had no idea what to expect. It was awesome. I teed off at 2:55 in early June and paid $51.00. Perfect!!

Highly recommend!!

I played both courses today- 36 holes in under 5 hours total. Had a 10:30 tee time. Both courses were in great shape. Fun layouts. Mountain was great, definitely better potential for scoring, I just wasn’t hitting it that well. Surprisingly got it together for Firecliff and played great the 2nd round. Will definitely be back!

I thought it was a little to wide open but very nice. The sand was a little iffy.
